I mean, if you have to look to something 13 years ago to support a candidate that candidate must not have very good policies
13 years after Sandy, NJ can’t gamble on climate change. Sherrill for governor | Opinion
On this thirteenth anniversary of Hurricane Sandy, climate inaction is driving up our utility costs while putting New Jersey in an even worse position than in 2012, when Sandy damaged or destroyed hundreds of thousands of homes, took 38 New Jersey lives, and caused tens of billions in economic losses — the costliest disaster in our state’s history. I still remember the post-apocalyptic quiet in the low-lying neighborhoods of Jersey City that were hit the hardest. In Hoboken, my wife (then my girlfriend) was displaced from her home at Park and First, where eight-foot-high water marks stained the walls and where we eventually found her refrigerator tossed into a neighbor’s backyard by floodwaters.
And yet, instead of investing in the resilience of our communities, the federal government is gutting disaster relief programs and slashing clean energy investments while our utility bills are skyrocketing and AI data centers exacerbate the strain on our power grid. It’s more important than ever that we elect a governor like Rep. Mikie Sherrill, who will stand up to President Donald Trump, lower utility bills, implement clean energy standards and fight for continued investments in disaster response. (snip)
Meanwhile, climate driven flooding and coastal risk are pushing property insurance companies to raise rates or refuse coverage altogether. And at the same time, our state’s four major investor-owned utilities have increased residential rates by roughly 20% this year alone. Half of New Jersey households now say they struggle to afford their utility bills. This is untenable, and it shouldn’t be inevitable.
Who runs NJ? Democrats. Who has closed power plants, including the Oyster Creek plant in Ocean County, and replaced affordable, reliable energy with expensive, unreliable energy? Sandy was an aberration, and they happen. Flooding has always happened at the shore, because it is low lying, and you have the Intra-Coastal Waterway running down the state from Manasquan down. But, you know, wackos like Raj Mukherji deserve moonbats like Sherrill.
BTW, why do so few Dems give up their own use of fossil fuels in NJ?
The oyster Creek plant was the oldest nuke still in operation when it closed in 2018 after 50 years of age.
The state of NJ did not close it.the owner of the plant closed it. It needed a complete rebuild and new cooling towers. It would not have been profitable it was also small only
Teach every American is reducing their carbon footprint by using less fossil fuels. They will continue to use less fossil fuels. Fossil fuel carnot footprint peaked 2007. It has been steadily decreasing since Obama took your incandescent light bulbs away. We are steadily electrifying that will continue
The expect Oyster creek will finish its decommissioning and remove the nuke contamination in year 2030. It is still pretty hot
Also, Global coal consumption hit a record high of 8.77 billion metric tons in 2024.
Relax. Global warming will continue unabated. You’ve won!
I know
Of course the leftists support Sherrill.
She cheats then lies about it.

The past 30 years NJ has had 17 years of Republicun governors. NJ’s biggest gripe is around their state and local taxes.
Sherrill is a Democrat but hardly a radical leftist as William fibs.
She graduated from the United States Naval Academy, has an MSc in international and world history from the London School of Economics and a JD from Georgetown. Sherrill flew missions throughout Europe and in the Middle East as a U.S. Navy helicopter pilot flying the H-3 Sea King. Later, she was a Russian policy officer assigned to the then-Headquarters, Commander-in-Chief, U.S. Naval Forces Europe (CINCUSNAVEUR). Sherill was active duty for 9 years. She was a federal prosecutor, the assistant United States Attorney for the District of New Jersey.
She is a Roman Catholic and is married to a former Naval intelligence officer and is the mother of four.
Sherill joined the conservative Blue Dog Coalition and the moderate New Democrat Coalition and opposed the first impeachment of trump. She publicly asked Biden to NOT run in 2024.
Does William have evidence to support his fib that Sherill is a hyper-lefty moonbat? Is his anger based on her gender or her party?
Blue Dog Democrats elect Nancy Pelosi’s.
James,
Sherrill did not vote for Nancy Pelosi to retake the speakership, instead voting for Cheri Bustos of Illinois.
